    I worked for same employer in 2 states and my state wages exceed my federal
    I worked for a company in WI and transferred to Iowa within the same company. When I received my w2 I noticed that they withheld tax in WI and IA for the same wages for months after the transfer. I have asked them to correct it but they say it is correct. Any help?
